Kraken Robotics Completes Acquisition of 3D at Depth
ST. JOHN'S, Newfoundland and Labrador, April 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Kraken Robotics Inc. ('Kraken' or the 'Company') (TSX-V: PNG, OTCQB: KRKNF) announces that, through a subsidiary, it has completed the acquisition of 3D at Depth Inc. ('3D at Depth') on the terms previously disclosed in the Company's press release dated March 13, 2025. 3D at Depth is a subsea services company specializing in high resolution LiDAR imaging and measurements.
3D at Depth is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Kraken. As it transitions to the Kraken brand, it will continue to operate as a trusted partner in subsea LiDAR imaging, complementing Kraken's suite of synthetic aperture sonar and sub-bottom imaging technologies.
'We are pleased to welcome 3D at Depth to the Kraken Robotics team and look forward to offering our comprehensive subsea intelligence solutions to our clients,' said Greg Reid, President and CEO of Kraken. 'Our combined solutions are complementary, enabling us to provide best-in-class technologies to our global customer base across the commercial, defense, and marine research sectors.'
Kraken offers a suite of advanced marine technology products and services to enable clients worldwide to complete complex subsea missions, providing higher resolution data and enhanced endurance solutions.
Products Include:
Kraken Synthetic Aperture Sonar (SAS)
Kraken SAS is a technology evolution, integrating the capability to perform imaging and bathymetric mapping simultaneously, while delivering significantly higher resolution, range, and the industry's best Area Coverage Rates (ACR). Ranging from mine countermeasures and port and harbor security to infrastructure integrity surveys and broad area habitat mapping campaigns, Kraken SAS provides higher-grade subsea information that reduces the cost and time required to make critical decisions.
KATFISH
Kraken's KATFISH is an actively stabilized synthetic aperture sonar (SAS) towfish system that delivers ultra-high-resolution data of up to 2 cm x 2 cm. The KATFISH towbody leverages articulated tailfins and an intelligent autopilot to compensate for motion, enabling high-quality data collection and large area coverage rates.
SeaPower
Kraken's SeaPower pressure-neutral battery system delivers twice the energy density at 46% less weight in water per kWh compared to traditional oil-compensated batteries. Its exceptional energy-to-volume and weight ratio enables extended, deeper, and more complex underwater operations with reduced recharging needs.
Services Include:
LiDAR Survey
Underwater LiDAR surveys result in comprehensive, accurate data to enable informed decision-making on underwater assets and infrastructure in a cost-effective, low risk manner. Applications include measurement, inspection, diagnostics, and asset monitoring for offshore oil and gas, nuclear, hydroelectric industries, defense and security, and marine science and research.
SAS Survey
Kraken's KATFISH towed synthetic aperture sonar surveys can provide significant augmentation to existing offshore energy and defense survey operations, acquiring higher quality, wider swaths of data at faster speeds than towed sidescan sonar.
Sub-Bottom Imaging
Kraken's Sub-Bottom Imaging services allow you to see beneath the seabed using advanced acoustic technology. Our Sub-Bottom Imager (SBI) 3D data provides a clear understanding of subsea lithography and hazards, decreasing the risk of your offshore operations.
Acoustic Coring
The Acoustic Corer utilizes advanced acoustic technology for sub-seabed interrogation, optimizing offshore installation programs. By bridging the gap between geophysical and geotechnical site investigation methods, it delivers a 3D acoustic core with a 14 m diameter and depths exceeding 50 m.

The Stock Market Is Rising — and These Hidden Gems Are Staying Cheap
Written by Sneha Nahata at The Motley Fool Canada The S&P/TSX Composite Index, also regarded as the benchmark for the Canadian stock market, has been rising amid easing concerns about a macroeconomic slowdown and interest rate cuts. While many stocks on the TSX have surged, several hidden gems continue to trade at attractive valuations, presenting a compelling opportunity for investors to consider. Against this backdrop, here are a few hidden gems that remain cheap and have solid growth potential. goeasy (TSX:GSY) is one of the top TSX stocks to buy now for its attractive valuation. Despite its impressive track record of solid growth and strong fundamentals, the market is undervaluing this Canadian financial services company. Currently, its shares trade at a next 12-month price-to-earnings (P/E) multiple of around eight, a level that suggests it could be a hidden gem, especially when you consider its potential for sustained earnings growth in the double digits. goeasy operates in the subprime lending space and has proven its ability to thrive in this niche. Over the past five years, the company's sales have grown at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of more than 19%. Moreover, its earnings have increased at a CAGR of nearly 26%, outpacing revenue growth. That upward momentum has been reflected in its stock price, which has surged more than 212% over the last five years. Moreover, its solid profitability has driven a consistent increase in its dividend. goeasy has paid a dividend every year for the past 21 years and has increased it for 11 consecutive years, making it a dependable income stock. goeasy's dominance in Canada's subprime lending market, expansion of its consumer loan portfolio, diversified funding sources, and solid underwriting practices position it well to scale rapidly while maintaining profitability. In summary, goeasy offers a compelling mix of value, growth, and income. Its low valuation, strong earnings trajectory, and consistent shareholder returns make it a top pick for creating wealth. Investors seeking a high-quality stock with an attractive valuation could consider WELL Health Technologies (TSX:WELL). This digital healthcare company has been performing well, led by steady demand for its omnichannel patient care services. Moreover, its strategic acquisitions have accelerated its growth and broadened its footprint. Despite its solid operational performance, WELL Health's stock appears significantly undervalued. Currently, it trades at a near-historical low NTM enterprise value-to-sales ratio of just one. This discounted valuation presents a compelling opportunity for investors. WELL Health's growth story shows no signs of slowing down. Besides organic growth, WELL Health will benefit from its acquisitions. The company recently acquired a stake in HEALWELL AI, which will enhance its scale. Moreover, it remains focused on expanding its footprint in Canada, particularly in its patient care and technology services segments. Operationally, WELL Health continues to streamline operations to improve profitability. Moreover, it is strengthening its financial position by reducing debt. Furthermore, WELL Health's focus on minimizing share dilution is a positive aspect. Given its solid growth, improving fundamentals, and attractively low valuation, WELL Health Technologies offers a combination of growth and value.

2 TSX Value Stocks to Buy When Everyone Else Is Selling
Written by Adam Othman at The Motley Fool Canada There is always value to be found in the stock market, even when the broader market has a bullish trend. As of this writing, the S&P/TSX Composite Index, which is the benchmark for the Canadian stock market, is nearing new all-time highs. The index is up by almost 17% from its low on April 8, 2025. Typically, savvier investors who can see through the noise of a market sell-off focus on investing when everyone else sells. What if I told you those investors still have opportunities to buy undervalued stocks even when the market is hitting new all-time highs? Year to date, the TSX is up by 5.75%. However, the TSX still has plenty of stocks trailing behind the rest of the market. Today, I will discuss two of them to help you determine whether they might be good candidates to consider long-term winners or stocks to avoid like the plague in your self-directed portfolio. Air Canada (TSX:AC) is a battered and bruised giant in the Canadian airline industry. The $6.05 billion market-cap company is Canada's flag-bearing and largest airline. The company operates domestic, U.S.-Canada transborder flights and several international routes worldwide. Air Canada was one of the top 20 largest airlines worldwide before COVID struck in 2019. Since the pandemic, the stock has failed to recover to better valuations. Despite not operating any flights, AC stock faced considerable cash burn to maintain its fleet, resulting in massive debt for the company without a recovery through operational revenue. Air Canada's most recent earnings report for the first quarter of 2025 saw it report $5.2 billion in revenue. Slightly down from $5.23 billion in the same quarter last year, the airline still generated around $387 million in adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA). The company continues to expand its capacity, and while it may take a long time, there seems to be a recovery on the horizon. Suncor Energy (TSX:SU) is another battered stock but in an entirely different industry. The $61.02 billion market-cap firm based in Calgary is an integrated energy company. It has operations that include oil sands development, production and upgrading, petroleum refining, offshore oil and gas operations, and wholesale distribution networks to retail the end product directly to consumers. The company is also advancing its transition into a lower-emission future. The company trades at roughly 10.29 times trailing earnings, indicating that it might be undervalued right now. As of this writing, Suncor stock trades for $49.71 per share and distributes $0.57 per share each quarter to its shareholders, reflecting a 4.59% annualized dividend yield. It can be a good investment to consider for locking in high-yielding dividends and long-term capital gains. For most investors, investing when the market is going downward does not make sense. Why invest in a bear market when there's nothing but losses everywhere? Smarter investors know how to use those downturns as opportunities to invest in undervalued stocks at a bargain. Despite what some investors might think, there still are opportunities during upticks to invest in bargains. Suncor stock and Air Canada stock might seem very risky investments, and that's because they are. However, the potential to recover to better valuations in the long run is there. If you have a well-balanced portfolio and a higher risk tolerance, these two might be good bets to pay off a few years down the line.
